Lyrics:
Under open skies I leave the day behind
Wonder in my eyes, the world feels so alive
I just speak your name and my heart seems to change
God of truth and grace, I can only praise you
And the stars are singing out the glory of your wonderous love
Heaven’s reaching down to show me all that you have done for me
Healer of my heart, come burn away the dark
under soft twilight, I can hear your voice tonight
Your name is higher than the heavens
Your glory fills a million skies
Your heart is reaching down from heaven and my soul cries out to you
Behind the Song:
"A life of touring is one of inconsistency - sleeping whenever you can, driving through the night when you have to, sleeping on floors, waking up in a different hotel in a different city every night...but one of the constants is the stars overhead. It comforts me to look up to them and know that “The heavens declare the glory of the Lord” no matter where I am. Pondering the galaxies, the universe, and the calibration of the earth amidst all of it to sustain human life gives me a clear picture of how mind-blowingly huge God is, and how much He loves us. Often times, star-gazing draws me out of whatever pains or problems I am experiencing and fixing my eyes on the immense, unstoppable glory of the Lord. That same God sent His only Son to die for me - a seemingly insignificant dot amongst all of creation." - Justin Anderson (Mainstay)
